I'm not an RPM expert, but AFAIK it is normally possible to create a more or 
less generic spec file, that only has to be compiled and packaged on 
different target systems. Often you also just get one RPM for all 
distribution.
We should only support one or two distribution at all! RPMs or other formats 
for other distributions can be provided by someone else. That's typical for 
OpenSource: If you need it, just do it and provide your changes for others.

But perhaps someone with more experience on RPM or similar package management 
has a different view on that?

greetings,
Jochen
